2011 Team Kit First Look: Team Wallonie-Bruxelles

Here’s a first look at the 2011 team kit for the recently-announced Belgian Continental team under the direction of former Motorola rider Michel Dernies, Team Wallonie-Bruxelles. Pretty nice, huh?

About Whit

My experiences might easily fit many cycling fans' definitions of “living the dream.” Since getting hooked on the sport watching Lance Armstrong win the 1993 U.S. Pro Championship, I've raced as an amateur on Belgian cobbles, traveled Europe to help build a European pro team, and piloted that team from Malaysia to Mont Ventoux. As a former assistant director sportif with Mercury-Viatel, I've also seen the less dreamy side of the sport – the side rife with broken contracts, infighting, and positive dope tests. These days, I live with my lovely wife in Pennsylvania and share my experiences and views on the sport at Bicycling Magazine, the Embrocation Cycling Journal, and at my own site, Pavé.

It looks good. Not too common of a color scheme, which means that when I'm squinting at a video on my computer monitor, they'll stand out. Unlike RadioShack, BMC, and Caisse d'Epargne, whose common red/black scheme makes them all look like each other.
